L'Arcolaio product types

The L'Arcolaio own-brand catalogue is divided into three clear clusters, each with a specific purpose of use.

HPL table tops Made in Italy

Table tops are made of HPL (High Pressure Laminate) with a thickness of 10 mm, produced in Italy. They are available in two square formats — 70×70 cm (suitable for 2 people, ideal for small spaces or bistro tables) and 80×80 cm (for 2–4 people) — and in eleven finishes: marble effect (Calacatta, White Moon), stone effect (Ardesia Climb, Ardesia Antracite, Corten), wood effect (Walnut Velwood, Rovere Cream Velwood, Country Velwood) and solid colours (Forest Green Geo, Vin Rouge, Agave).

HPL is waterproof, scratch-resistant and UV-resistant: it is suitable for both indoor use — kitchens, bars, restaurants — and covered outdoor use, under a pergola or awning. The table tops are sold as single components without base included, compatible with standard bases with central column or four legs with adequate spacing.

Decorative LED and solar lamps

The lighting range includes touch lamps in glass and crystal, solar floor lamps (height 160–170 cm), candlestick lamps, metal lanterns and musical lamps with integrated speaker. Table-top models vary between 20 and 35 cm in height. USB rechargeable versions and those solar-powered with integrated photovoltaic panel allow outdoor use without the need for wiring, ideal for terraces and gardens. To match the right light to your space, also discover the candle holders available in the catalogue.

Vulcano bioclimatic pergolas

Vulcano pergolas have a structure in powder-coated extruded aluminium with adjustable panels that regulate light and ventilation. They are available in the formats 3×4 m (12 m²) and 4×4 m (16 m²), with a standard height of approximately 250 cm. Textilene side curtains are separate accessories and allow perimeter closure. A solution designed for those who want to enjoy their outdoor space even in the intermediate seasons.

Satin pouches and party favour accessories

Satin confectionery pouches (9×12 cm) are available in five colours: black, turquoise, peach, pink, fuchsia. Sold in packs of 12 pieces, they combine easily with any event style — from formal weddings to christenings in pastel palette. To build a complete party favour, you can integrate them with the party favour accessories and the ceremony candles available in the same shop.

How to choose the right product

For outdoor furnishings: choose the HPL table top based on the available space. The 70×70 cm format is the right choice for small balconies and outdoor areas with few covers; the 80×80 cm works better in gardens and terraces where four can sit. For the finish, stone effect versions (Ardesia, Corten) pair well with steel or iron structures, those with wood effect (Walnut, Rovere Cream) with bases in teak or aluminium with natural effect.

For external light without wiring: solar floor lamps 160–170 cm high are the most practical solution for gardens where you do not want to run cables. Touch lamps in crystal, on the other hand, are suitable for terrace tables or indoors where you are looking for a decorative element. In this sense they can be combined with the cake candles to complete the mise en place of a party.

For ceremonies: satin confectionery pouches are chosen based on the colour of your wedding or christening theme. Neutral colours such as turquoise and peach work for christenings and communions; black and fuchsia adapt better to weddings with a bolder palette. Match the pouches with the ceremony decorations and the ceremony arrangements for a coherent result from the hall to the outdoors.

For party favours with miniature spirits: the miniature spirits in the L'Arcolaio catalogue can be used as a party favour or place card, combined with decorative glassware and gift accessories. A practical choice for those looking for something original without sacrificing simplicity.

Frequently asked questions

Are L'Arcolaio HPL table tops suitable for outdoor use?

Yes, with some caveats. HPL is resistant to moisture and UV rays, but for optimal use installation in covered environments — under a pergola or awning — or storage during prolonged precipitation is recommended. Direct and continuous exposure to weather can reduce the finish durability over time.

Are the table tops sold with the base included?

No. L'Arcolaio HPL table tops are sold as single components, without base. They are compatible with standard outdoor bases with central column or four legs with spacing appropriate to the chosen format (70×70 or 80×80 cm).

How many finishes are available for HPL table tops?

Eleven finishes are available: Agave, Country Velwood, Ardesia Climb, Calacatta Marmo Bianco, Vin Rouge, Walnut Velwood, Rovere Cream Velwood, Corten Climb, Forest Green Geo, White Moon Geo and Ardesia Climb Antracite. Each finish is available in both formats.

Are L'Arcolaio touch lamps rechargeable?

It depends on the model. Some touch lamps are USB rechargeable, others run on batteries or direct power. Solar floor lamps are autonomous thanks to the integrated photovoltaic panel. Consult the product sheet for details.

Are the satin confectionery pouches suitable for weddings and christenings?

Yes. The 9×12 cm satin confectionery pouches are designed for ceremonies such as weddings, christenings and communions. They are sold in packs of 12 pieces and available in black, turquoise, peach, pink and fuchsia. For a complete arrangement, combine them with the other party favour accessories available in the catalogue.

Is it possible to use miniature spirits as party favours?

Yes. The miniature spirits in the L'Arcolaio range are also designed for use as party favours or place cards for events, weddings and ceremonies, possibly combined with decorative glassware and gift accessories available in the same collection.

In our assortment we have selected these L'Arcolaio branded products because they cover concrete needs: those who need to renew a garden table without changing the base, those looking for decorative outdoor light without installation, those organising a ceremony and needing pouches, candles and coordinated accessories in a single point of purchase. Shipping is available throughout Italy.
